I am a beginner here but,
how many miles on car, what size motor, what year?
My '86 900S did this in the winter and not really in the summer.
I was told it was a trapped moisture from cold weather. It did this
for 100k. The head gasket did weep but nothing too bad.
There is some talk of heads not being tightened down enough from the factory.
This could be true with your car. I don't think it will fail catastrophically.
Other more knowledgable folks will have more to say here I'm sure.
Do a search re-torquing the head just for the knowledge.
